I created an Anki deck by importing fields with embedded media from an Excel file. Everything works fine on Anki Desktop and on my own Ankiweb account, but when I try to share the file the media is missing.
The only workaround I’ve discovered is manually to enter the media file name in the Question or Answer column on Anki desktop’s browse notes view. (It also works click on the image html and then on the “Question” or “Answer” column.) After I do this, the media appears on my shared decks. But it takes a long time to correct each card manually.
Do you mean that you had a link to the media in your card template before entering the links in each field? The former will not work: Field Replacements - Anki Manual
No, the reference to the media in the CSV file looks like this: < img src =“אכל.png”> (but without the space between < and img)
When imported into Anki, the corresponding Image field is exactly the same.
The card front template is as follows: {{Image}}.
After import, nothing is displayed in the “Questions” column in browser until I toggle HTML editor in the Image field of a particular card. When I click on the HTML (e.g., < img src=“אשׁה.png”>) and then back in the question field, the question field fills up for that particular card:
Hmm. The fact that it works after viewing the note in the editor seems to imply there’s something wrong with the HTML used to describe the images, and it’s getting corrected by the editor. It’s not obvious from the line you pasted, and I’m assuming you added the space in the image tag. Would it be possible to share the csv file somewhere like Google Drive or a filesharing site, so I can see the original verbatim?
